Rilla of Ingleside
Book 8 of the Anne of Green Gables series
As the First World War begins, young Rilla Blythe expects dances and romance but instead watches her brothers and friends leave Glen St. Mary for overseas service. She unexpectedly takes responsibility for an abandoned infant and joins community war work, growing through years of waiting, uncertainty, sacrifice, and bereavement. News from the front reaches the family through letters, newspapers, and the faithful dog waiting at the station. Poignant and historically immediate, this wartime coming-of-age novel suits reflective autumn reading and readers prepared for patriotism, grief, endurance, and a sheltered girl becoming capable under pressure.
